Three things, really. An astronomer needs to determine the apparent brightness of a star or other object, and needs to know its distance. He would also need to have an estimate about extinction - that is, how much of the light is absorbed on its way.
The measurement that starts with absolute zero is temperature measured in Kelvin. In the Kelvin scale, absolute zero is the point at which all thermal motion ceases, making it the lowest possible temperature.
There is no such thing as negative Kelvin. The Kelvin temperature scale starts at absolute zero, which is the point where all atomic motion stops. Negative values below absolute zero are not physically meaningful.
No, 278k is equal to 5 degrees Celsius. The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero, whereas Celsius scale starts at 0 degrees C with water freezing point at 0 degrees C.
The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale that starts at absolute zero, the point at which all molecular motion ceases. Since there are no negative temperatures in the Kelvin scale, it is not expressed in degrees. On the other hand, the Celsius scale is relative to the freezing and boiling points of water, hence it is expressed in degrees.
K, which stands for Kelvin is an absolute temperature scale in that it starts at 0 K and 0 K is the lowest possible temperature (a.k.a. absolute zero). Absolute zero on the Celsius scale is -273.15 C. To turn any temperature in Kelvin to degrees Celsius, simply subtract 273.15, so that in your case the answer is 55.85 C.
Galileo Galilei is a famous astronomer. He was an Italian astronomer. He was born in 1564 and died in 1642.
Galileo was the first astronomer to explain why the sun and starts travel across the sky
Astronomers use a camera. It begins with the letter c.
The measurement that starts with absolute zero is temperature measured in Kelvin. In the Kelvin scale, absolute zero is the point at which all thermal motion ceases, making it the lowest possible temperature.
To adjust the brightness of a touch LED light, simply touch and hold the light until it starts to dim or brighten. Release your touch when the desired brightness level is reached.
The Absolute scale (degrees Kelvin) which starts at absolute 0. The Centigrade scale that starts at the freezing point of ice. The Fahrenheit scale that starts at the freezing point of brine.
An absolute path name is one that starts at the root directory and navigates from there. An absolute path name can be accessed from anywhere in the system without having to navigate to it.
Mikhail Gorbachev was the President of the Soviet Union. Galileo Galilei was an astronomer.
The Kelvin, abbreviated K. The scale starts at absolute zero.
The Kelvin scale is an absolute temperature scale where 0K represents absolute zero. The absolute temperature scale refers to any temperature scale that starts at absolute zero, such as the Kelvin scale. So, the Kelvin scale is a specific type of absolute temperature scale.
No, but they are related. Absolute zero is the coldest possible temperature. Absolute temperature is the temperature above this coldest possible temperature - i.e., how much hotter is it than the coldest theoretically possible temperature. Celsius temperature isn't absolute. It starts from the temperature of freezing water, and it needs negative numbers for anything colder than that. Fahrenheit temperature isn't absolute. It says that zero is 32 degrees colder than freezing water, and it needs negative numbers for anything colder than that. Absolute temperature starts from absolute zero. Nothing is colder than that, so absolute temperature is never a negative number.
